Cyril Blake AKA Cyril Pacejka
I am searching for information about Cyril Pacejka or Cyril Blake. He was born March 23 1904 in Pueblo CO 6 months after the death of his father. Three years later his mother Mary died. The 3 oldest children Frances, Antone & Joseph stayed on their own. But Mary, John, Andrew & Cyril were all put in the Sacred Heart Orphanage. For some reason after they left the orphanage Mary, John & Andrew changed their name to Blake. Mary went by Marie E. Blake, John went by George Blake and Andrew went by Andrew Blake. We do not know when they decided to change their names, but it appears that it was sometime after 1917. Cyril was in the orphanage until about 1923. We are assuming he changed his name also, because we are unable to find him after the 1920 census when he is still in the orphange as Cyril Pacejka.
